GREEN TEA: Cloud Mist, China

Cloud Mist
Green tea, China

Flavour: roasted chestnut, beans, marine, broth

This Spring harvest green tea was plucked on 29 March 2024 in the high mountain area of Nankeng, Zhenghe County in Fujian province.

When infused, the tea releases fragrant notes of roasted chestnut and melted butter. The infusion has a pleasing bitter and umami flavour with notes of broad beans, seaweed and vegetable broth.

This tea comes from Wuyi Origin tea company, led by Cindy Chen and her husband, Zhou Shiwu. Cindy and Zhou value quality tea craftsmanship and love sharing the experience of their region’s special teas.

Infusions: specialty tea leaves can all be steeped at least twice, and often more, so each 3 gram serve (150 mls - a standard teacup size), will give you two cups ('infusions') if you steep the leaves twice. On the back of your pouch under 'Steep', you can find the number of infusions for your tea.

If you infuse your leaves at least twice, your pouch will give you the following cups of tea (or more if you infuse your leaves more times):

50 grams - 33 cups
100 grams - 66 cups
200 grams - 133 cups
